    Hi, I am 47 and need to lose 15-20 lbs and lower my body fat percentage. I am a wife, mom, work full-time and am also going to school to become a certified personal trainer. I've lost about 30 but have really been struggling the last several months. I need to re-group, focus and get back on track.

    I start the last of my classes in 1 month, so I am really under the gun here. Most of the people in the Personal Training Program I am in are in their early 20's so I am significantly older than most of my class-mates. While I don't have a problem with that, I do have a problem being the most unfit.

    SO....I'm looking for help staying focused and on track. I'm willing to return the favor!.

    I am 47 and I have been working at this for a few years, but only successfully this past year. I have lost nearly 100 pounds and I feel like I am in the home stretch. I have figured out how to make this a lifestyle change, so when I reach my goal, I won't have to change a thing. I really enjoy the way I eat and I don't feel deprived. The positives are really starting to add up now.

    If anyone is looking for some support, feel free to add me.

    I too am back again, having gained back all but 10 pounds. At 41, I feel different... this time I am not dropping like I once could. But it seems more important than it used to ... where did the shoulder and knee pain come from? Never had it in my 30's. This time we can make it together!

    40 just a month ago, mom of 3, and daughter getting married in 30 days! Time to get serious about something I've been working on for past year- I realize now how important good nutrition is for my energy level. Feel free to add me as a friend
